Barbara Bush is trending because she and Laura Bush appeared in a video tribute to the 41st and 43rd presidents (and remote Mitt Romney endorsement) at the Republican National Convention.
We’ve all seen the George W. Bush “Miss Me Yet?” billboards, but one thing we didn’t miss was the “humorous” trashing of former First Lady Barbara Bush.
I long for the days of "Barbara Bush is really a dude" jokes. Sigh. #RNC.

“Sigh,” indeed. We thought the meme was “GOP’s war on women,” not “war on GOP women.”

P.S. If you really want to stay classy, you might want to watch that video again and take notes.
After watching the Bush video at #gop2012, Barbara Bush is one of the classiest Americans in our history.
